I just got my SX Tech Tool Kit Professional. I downloaded, printed and puched holes in·~175 pages·of the 1.1 PDF found at:
http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=45182
http://www.parallax.com/dl/docs/prod/sx/sxkeyman1_1.pdf

But later found a version 2 PDF at:

http://www.parallax.com/sx/sxb.asp
http://www.parallax.com/dl/docs/prod/sx/SXKeyMan2_0.pdf

Please update the website with version 2 as it is a bit fustratrating.

    tdg8934:

    We're searching the Parallax web site and making this correction. Sorry for the wasted laser printer toner and paper. Sometimes the people providing new documents don't know how many pages are linked to the old one, and our web tools are a bit cryptic. That's all about to change as we continue to prepare to release a new web site.

    Out of curiosity, why are you printing the manual when the kit includes one already?

    Eeep,
    Sorry for the frustration.· I'vecorrected the issue at:
    http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=45182

    It should now·be linked to·the most recent version of the manual, as well as·possess a·version number on the link itself so everyone knows which one it is right away without having to look at the URL that pops up.

    Again, sorry for the not-updated link,
    -]]

    I did get the correct version 2 manual printed in my kit.

    I did not know it was the same as the downloaded PDF because the front cover looked different than the PDF (inside cover).

    Sorry for the confusion.

    What other manuals should I download?

    I got the manual from Guenther in the Kit.

    I also downloaded a PDF called "Beginning Assembly language for the SX microcontroller v2.0". Is this the same as "Exploring the SX microcontroller with Assembly and Basic v3.0" ?

    You've got the goods. The SX/B-specific stuff is in the online help file. Our friend, Matt Gilliland, is working on a "Getting Started..." book for SX/B, and I'll be adding more full-blown experiments to the help file. As I said, you've got the goods -- now go have some fun!
